The defense was indeed mediocre, but the Eagles passing offense was ranked 30th for the vast majority of the season. The offense had to be completely changed to a run-heavy offense cuz Hurts' limitations as a Qb were being abused in the first half of the season. I'd rather the Eagles spend picks on a proven Qb than be one of these teams with a potentially good defense and garbage Qb. Look at the 49ers for an example on how you're limited.Maybe but it's still not the reason they lost the games last year. The defense giving upon almost a 80% to good QBs is. Gotta spend those 3first rd picks on the d line and maybe an offensive tackle. More important than QB...this year .
Rumors already swirling the Seattle is planning on using those picks from the trade to get Deshaun Watson from the Texans
Help me Mariners. You're my only hope.
Please end the lockout, asshole baseball team owners.
absolutely no team looks at Jimmy G as a floor raiser worthy of spending premium capital on to land lmao
Yep, the Mariners (and the Sonics) we're a way bigger part of my childhood, and a world series win would easily be one of the best moments of my life. I hope we get that one day. End the damn lockout.I love the Mariners. My childhood was spent in the Kingdome and listening to Dave on the radio. If we ever win the world series it will hands down be the third greatest day of my life behind my wedding and my daughter being born.
My wife jokes that it would probably be better than those other two. Heh.
I need baseball back. Now.
Eh, I'd rather not. He was my favorite player before he was outed as a predator. Wouldn't want him on my team now.Rumors already swirling the Seattle is planning on using those picks from the trade to get Deshaun Watson from the Texans
Is he going going to command a Wilson or Stafford level haul? Is he poised to go for at least a mid-late 1st, maybe a little more. Poor QB draft class, slim pickings around the league, someone will absolutely pay up. See the Sam Bradford trade.
Denver no longer needs a QB but now Seattle does. They won't be going after Jimmy obviously, but anyone else is a potential target.
I don't think Hurts is the answer, but I also don't think the rest of the Eagles Roster becomes a legit contender if you swap Hurts out for an elite QB. I probably would have been willing to do 3 1st rounders (2 this year and 1 next year) for Russ though!

Seattle is rebuilding. They aren't in the market for Jimmy. It takes one potential/realistic landing spot for a guy like Jimmy out of play.

49er fans gotta stop overvaluing Jimmy G. Organization hasn't kept it a secret that they can't wait to get rid of him.
I'll just call this wishful thinking lmao
If he gets a third I'll say its a win for the niners
Darnold just went for a 2nd Round pick along with two other picks. And again..see the Bradford trade. The league overvalues QBs.
It doesn't matter if Niners fans over value Jimmy, only thing that matters is that some schmuck GM over values Jimmy.
Darnold was viewed as having a higher ceiling because of how young he was. Jimmy is 30 and has been a starting Qb for 5 years. Teams know what he is, and what he is is not worth a first round pick. Even players like Wentz, who has played like an MVP at one point in his career and his younger, was only traded for a conditional first round pick. The NFL overvalues QBs yes, but generally not ones like Jimmy. Ironically its Niners fans who seem to be the ones who overvalue him despite all evidence pointing to him not being that guy.

Jimmy is worth more than you guys are giving him credit for. He been to the Superbowl, 2 NFC championship games, and his stats are better than a good half of the league. He won't get a kings ransom but he will be worth quite a bit.
Under no circumstances did Darnold have a higher ceiling coming out of 2020 than Jimmy G does coming off of his second deep playoff run in three seasons. That's silly talk. And believe me, no one who watched him for the past 5 years is deluding themselves into thinking he's a franchise guy. But let's not like there are plenty of examples of QB needy teams overpaying for that tier of QB or worst.
